Characteristics of a "deadsticking" rod?

(Steve=A0@=A0OutdoorFrontiers)
Because the rod sits in a holder, and I'm not keeping 100% of my
attention on it, it's nice to have this soft action.
This way, a fish can grab the bait and begin to swim off, but the soft
action of the rod doesn't immediately put heavy pressure on the fish.
Quite often, I see the rod tip start to dip down, and can grab the rod
from the holder before the fish feels the rod.

Yep this is how it wil be used. Going to throw out like a Strike King 3X
finesse worm and just let it be. Plus, with the reel Im going to get
with a clicker bait alert feature I think the set-up will work out fine.
Ill ckeck out this particular rod when I go to the BPS sale event in
March near Chicago. Ill more than likely get the reel (ambassadeur C4
5600) today.
